Page 7 in the Daily Star today. It can only be him. What's being said fits and this coming out at this moment is a sign I reckon.

In fairness there is a real problem, particularly in boys, to get them to engage and enjoy reading so good children's books are needed desperately. That being said I personally would never buy one of his books. My niece used to love his books and it took all my willpower not to say anything about DW.
These are not good books though. They’re really badly written, rely on lazy stereotypes and cruel humour. Just horrible to read aloud. There are lots of really good children’s authors - even some other celebrities.

not condoning anything ML may have done, but that young man seemed quite unstable and the “evidence” of his voicemails was nothing incriminating that I could hear, many others said the same.
I do agree but find it odd Lucas tried to gag him? (In the press!)

Re Williams-Thomas theres something about him I simply don't trust, ex copper, he seemed to deny that the police didn't cover for Savile at any point, which I don't believe.

I think he tried to gag him because he was determined to smear his name and the press would have him as a reasonable source.

I'm repeating myself from a different thread but I don't trust the supposed expertise of anyone who believed Oscar Pistorius' intruder story.

Me neither. And he also believed that MM was abducted in Praia da luz.

My children all loved having stories read to them and I enjoyed reading books to them, but the few that I didn't feel comfortable with/didn't enjoy were mostly Walliams' - they just felt unpleasant. A reflection on the "author"?

He's a clout chaser, he's always dropping hints about "high profile investigations".

He doesn't behave like a professional ex-officer should, and he's given far too much credit for Savile.

Can we just take a moment to recall Williams-Thomas making the search for Nicola Bulley all about himself, too?

Just read an article in the mirror. It’s got quotes from him that he’s actually made in public at a cybersecurity event but just gave me red flags. I’m paraphrasing but it was things like imagine if my WhatsApp messages got leaked, I share bad taste jokes with friends same as everyone and the ominous “people send you bizarre things”. Could just be innocent but to me it sounds like, normalising, passing off as a joke and blaming others, to cover his back if his messages are dodgy and do get leaked. I’m possibly reaching but I always feel like these articles want you to read between the lines!

Whilst I'd rule nothing out with Walliams, this does seem far too bonkers to be true. It would have been instantly career-ending to want to reveal it, and he's not that daft.
Had some info from a very reliable source who would know that the sister story in the book, is in fact true. Shocked ( though I shouldn't be )

Re ML - a friend of mine went on a ‘date’ when he was 19 (this was a decade ago, ML would have been 41). My friend was v early in his career at the time and I think ML had slid into his DMs and offered him some advice on working in the TV/film industry. Not that there’s anything inherently wrong with that age gap, but he was exploiting his power and my mate felt really weird about it after and ML wouldn’t leave him alone for ages. Nothing more nefarious than that but i remember thinking it was a bit off at the time

I just googled Matt Lucas, another one who has been on the fab jabs….I wouldn’t recognise him.

How old is his sister? I know she's older but not by how much.
I thought she was roughly 2 years older but can't remember where I read that, they could be closer in age from the pics..
